so just went for a new job

[flea.rider]

I'm normally a hotel chef .. but went for a look at a miller carter steakhouse..
ffs it's a McDonalds basically pictures on the walls everything in packets ..
a computer tells you when to put the steak on and when to turn it ..
worst thing .. all 19-23 yr old chavs who in a real kitchen would not know there arse from there elbow .
i said to one ..do you know how to make a sauce .. why m8 it comes in a package (dumb look on his face)
this is a place that charge £6 for a wedge of lettuce with a bit of sauce and bacon bit's .. then £30-£60 for a steak .. ffs whats the world coming to ..
yeah lasted about 30 mins taking the **** out of a few .. finally just said this isn't for me and walked

Miller and carter or certainly the one near me serve pretty poor food and the service is horrendous.

I think you actually are better of at mc donalds rather than going in there

One opened down the road! Not sure I want to go there now!

 

[HAz]

go to kfc as they call their staff chefs to lol. Or i hear wetherspoons are good if you can work a microwave.

Sorry it wasn't what you thought it would be. On the positive side at least you know your mind and what you are looking for. You've got real skills rather than just loading a machine. Good luck in your hunt.

At least with spoons when you're paying 4.99 for a burger and a drink, you know what you're getting!

Have you signed up for Masterchef yet?

Robotic kitchens are the future tbh. Perfect food each and every time for very little labour cost.

Without a doubt. I've been to the M & C in Stratford a couple of times now, steak has always been perfect, which is more than I can say for some of the supposedly 'better' places I've been.
I'd rather it was cooked perfectly by a computer than badly by a human 'chef'

True. I can also sit ant my table and order food to be delivered using their app.

I’d like to stand in defence of Wetherspoons grub. Our local one serves very good, well priced food indeed, always tastes freshly cooked to me, especially the delish burgers.

"perfect food" is debatable lol.

I like to see my food being cooked! A bunch of places down here that have open kitchens, my local lunch joint is Feed, and the look on the chef's face as a regular walks in is great. Good quality hand made food at a reasonable price is becoming a rarity these days.

Totally agree. It's really frustrating.

that'll be vinegar strokes into the mayo

 

[Russinating]

You're surprised by this?

 

[A2Z]

Reminds me of Restaurant Impossible.... probably one of my favourite TV shows, if you haven't seen it check it out!

The amount of times they have a restaurant serving frozen/ready food is a joke... and Rob Irvine (who is a BOSS) rips them a new you know what.

 

[StriderX]

Aren’t all chains just increasing orders of *****?

You’re paying for the furniture.

well if your happy paying £20-30 for a £6 piece of steak that's great ..

What could possibly go wrong with that?
